My Project lots of pics updated 3/14/06 New Pics

Looking good, I couldn't believe that old body. Why didn't you paint up the frame when you had the bodu off? That whould have been a perfect time to do it and would have stopped it from decaying any more.

Can't wait to see what it looks like when your done, and definately keep the pink.

my orgianl plan was to strip the frame down and paint it but i ran out of time and had to get the body on the fram before i left for school
 
no offence but you suck at polishing!!! that is basically flat, and there is like no shine to it.. I dont mean to be a prick, but if your going to say your polishing something why not polish it?

I did not want it to be supper shinney, it looks better than it did stock. Im not building a show truck so i don't want it looking like chrome:rolleyes:

lookin good dude, keep it up. Is there a lot of good places to wheel by your school? I may have to take my truck up there some day
 
this project has come to a end, with the amount of work i had left to do on it and the lack of time being that i am hardly ever home i decided to buy a truck from my buddie that already had a lot of work done to it but still has plenty to do but i am able to drive it up to school so i can work on it there and actually wheel on the weekends now. I will have to start a new build thread when i start working on this new one next week, i plan on putting the TPI and my other goddies on the new truck
